The effect of the elemental composition of the anode material on the parameters and X-ray spectrum of micropinch discharge plasma have been studied using a low-inductance vacuum spark device. It is shown that the plasma electron temperature T{sub e} and intensity of hard X-ray emission increase with increasing nuclear charge number Z of the anode material of the discharge system.
